I was feeling particularly antisocial yesterday. So I tried to find a quiet corner of Ebberon where I could peacefully collect my thoughts. I went into the house behind the mailbox in House P and sat in a quiet corner.
Not two minutes went by before people started gathering in this very same place. First a few, but then many, many more. I stayed out of sight hidden behind the stage.
One of them, who I will call "the leader" gathered them up and started discussing terrible, terrible plans. He set out a plan to acquire a gigantic air ship where his followers would gather and further plan the take over of Thelanis--enhanced by the powers of this ship. He said very uncomplimentary things about the relative impotence of various Thelanis guilds. He discussed decorating the ship with the heads and skins of pugs and blotting out the sun with its mighty presence.
I never felt such fear. Thelanis beware!
The only thing that gave me a glimmer of hope that their plan will not succeed was the following sign that many of the followers might not be very bright.
